ABSTRACT: The momentum spectra of g-mesons at sea level and on mountains
have already been investigated by a number of authors (Refs 1-6),
among others by Alikhanyan and Alikhanov. Under,--round, the
nucleon comuonent is rapidly absorbed and at a depth of B-10 r"
the penetrating component consists of muons. It was the air.
of the authors to investigate their spectrum in a depth of
40 m equivalent of water. The scheme of the experimental
arrangement is shomn by figure 1 and is described in short.
The data concerning the counters used are clearly given by
table 1. Among the total of 12 rows some hundreds of counters
were arranged. The radiotechnical part of the gyster.1 consisted
essentially of a coincidence block and a hodoscope of the
GKv7 type. The numerous measurin.- results are shown in tables
Card 1/3 and diagrams. Thus, table 2 gives the obtained (5-v;~lues at

H = 3300 and 6300 Oe, table 3 showo the values of the li-lit
power of the apparatus for n = 1~ 2, 3. The spectra constructed
in consideration of light power were produced on the basis
of the assumption that n = 2. In the momentum range
p ~~ 2.109 ev/c the muon spectrum may be approximated by the
formula 11(p)dn = N0dp/(p + p 0)7 , where 7 = 2,7L+0.2.' and
Po = 9.8 Bev/c (Fig 5). This formula can also be used for the
roughly approximated description of the spectrum in the ex-
8
tended range at p < 2.10 ev/c. The spectrum obtained permits
the conclusion that the so-called anomalous muon scatter-in,.-,
observed in a number of underground investigations can certain-
ly not be caused by an underestimation of the number of slow
muons. The authors finally thank A. 1. --'likhanyan for his
help, advice, and discussions, and V. Kh. Volynskiy and V.
Krugovykh for their assistance rendered in the course of
the experimental part of the work. They further thank S. 111'.

ABSTRACT: In the present "Letter to the Editor" the authors publish
the results obtained by underground measurements of particle
masses; they used a magnetic spectrometer which at the same
time served for measuring the momentum spectrum and the
positive muon excess in a depth of -40 m water equivalent.
The scheme of the measuring device -gas already described
in an earlier paper (Ref 1). Under the device was a lead
block of 6 cm thickness, and under the telesccpe system there
was a system of lead filters which were separated from one
another by layers of hodoscope counters. As no precise
measurements were intended, relatively thick filters (4cm)
were chosen. The root mean square error in mass determination
is mentioned as.amounting to 30P 17, and 12% for the filters

and negative particles with 4 cm< R 416 cm were identified

100 and 400 me witzi a maximum at 200 meI in one single case
500 me was found. The authors finally thank A. I. Alikhanyan
for help, advice, and discussions, and V. Kh. Volynakiy and
V. V. Krugovykh for their great help in carrying out the
experimental part of the work, There are I figure and 3 Soviet
